Robleh Omar (Madison West) scored in the 7th minute and Stephen Clemens (Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah) posted his fifth clean sheet of the season Saturday as the FC Wisconsin Nationals Under-15/16 team blanked Chicago Magic PSG 1-0 in a U.S. Soccer Development Academy match in Lake Forest, Ill.

Omar's sixth goal of the season – second on the team behind the eight scored by Michael Carreon Jr. (Kimberly) – proved enough as the Nationals (8-14-2) won their second in a row and extended their unbeaten streak to three games.

FC Wisconsin's Under-17/18 team, meanwhile, was on the wrong side of a 5-3 decision in the club's final away matches of the season.

Adrian Roman scored twice and Blake Carr (Hartland Arrowhead) added his team-best 10th goal of the season for the Nationals (7-13-4), who saw Emmanuel Sabbi score four times – including a natural hat trick in a 25-minute span in the first half.

All three FC Wisconsin sides will wrap up the season with three home matches at the club's complex in Germantown, starting Sunday against the Chicago Fire.
